Octuple J Dude Ranch

The Octuple J Dude Ranch is where the Smiths' make an annual visit, as shown in "Klaus and Rogu in "Thank God for Loose Rocks": An American Dad! Adventure". On their entry to the ranch, Stan smashes right through the front gate in an effort to get there faster, in the hopes that the ranch's donkey mascot, Tequila Joe will allow him to ride him, despite his reputation for being unrideable.

As Klaus looks forward to their annual visit to the ranch, including being referred to as 'Buckaroo' by Noel, the ranch foreman, he finds that Rogu has been invited along as well. Rogu not only copies his outfit, but steals all of the attention including being referred to as Buckaroo, although Noel admits that's the name his calls everyone.

When Klaus gets annoyed that Rogu is getting all of the attention, he frees Tequila Joe and tries to frame Rogu for it. As a result, they are both sent into the woods to search for him. Later, during the ranch talent show, Noel admit some concern as there have been mountain lions loose in the woods.

Despite being saved multiple times by Rogu, Klaus uses the opportunity when Rogu falls down a mineshaft to abandon him, rather than share family affections. Back at the ranch, he spins of tale of Rogu drowning, but admits to Roger what actually happened. The latter points out that their species has the ability bite through and regrow limbs at will, and reports that Rogu is probably already free and on his way for revenge. Indeed, Rogu arrives and starts shooting anyone in the open in the crotch.

Rogu rides into the ranch on Tequila Joe with an offer to allow everyone to go free if they surrender Klaus. When they refuse, as Klaus is part of the family, Rogu rides away, but declares there will be no survivors when he returns that night.

Klaus meets him in the woods to surrender himself, and admits he was wrong about Rogu, declaring him to be part of the family as well. The latter accepts the apology, but is still determined to kill Klaus for abandoning him but is attacked by a second mountain lion. This time, Rogu is saved by Klaus, who uses his rope skills to tie it up. Rogu still pulls a gun on Klaus, but allows him to live as he jokes that he can't shoot him in the dick because it's too small.

Although saddened by not getting to ride Tequila Joe, Stan is able to be satisfied with a hug.

Steve briefly sees the ranch while having an out-of-body experience in "The Wondercabinet".
